Mark. I had posted the thread, went out to dinner and had quite a bit to drink. When I got back a couple hours later, I was in no shape to heat up the iron and work on delicate traces. I'm sorry. I should have thanked you right away. I don't want to waste anyone's time. I like to collect and...
Thanx Mecha. I really appreciate it. It's going to be awhile until I can look at the game again. Things have gotten crazy here. I will let you know.
Peace.

Thanks for all the info on here. I got this game from being flat out DOA, to...

Looking for a complete Battlezone board set.
Also a WG 19v2000 or a Electrohome G05-802 chassis.
Unfortunately need the HV board/cage for the chassis as well.
Prefer working stuff, but willing to settle for something not working if need be.
Mr. Green. You won a "KLOV" prize for not having any responses! Please pick up your minty Atari Quantum at the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral.
During the restoration of my Crystal Castles Power Brick(or whatever you call that thing), the ground(bare) wire that comes out of the Transformer's cardboard packed windings...broke off. It appears that this bare wire came from within the transformer and then was grounded off against one of...
